Ive searched only found people getting them replaced for warranty. Im wondering if anyone has tried to sand it down and just reclear it. Im not sure if the oxidation in mine is in the clear or inbetween ...

 

I've been wondering the same thing. I'm going to have mine recleared when I get the one I have replaced under warranty. The gel coat on the wings just don't cut it.

 

I think you would be ok doing it. There is actually a decent amount of the gel coating between you and the CF.

My brother sanded my end pieces and recleared them for a full CF wing.

I have a extra wing from a warranty discard and I will be trying to fix the clear coat on it. Once im done I will post about how it turned out.

 

They let you keep the wing?

Yeah if its on the report to be discarded. I have 3 evo spoilers now

 

its looks pretty sweet if you do



has anyone tried this on an evo 9 yet?

 

The ends on the IX wing are plastic not CF.

 

Correct.

 

I've seen a "how too" on sanding down the wing on the VIII. Looks good on most cars.

 

I am getting mine done as we speak. If you have AIM, Instant message ll ULTIMATE ll he is doing mine.


That full Carbon look is awesome BTW. Shoudl have done that.

 

Thank you, I used the how-to from socalevo.net

I've gotten a lot of compliments on it.

 

Thanks for the info I actually looked really good at my wing w/ my friend that does body work and its hazed on the outside and theres spots inbetween the coating and cf in parts so theres def something wrong with the coating on the 03s

 

I did it to my carbon fiber hood on my eclipse...well my dad did lol. Came out perfect. You gotta be careful with that though...you cant just sand it and then reclear..its takes many more steps.
